Supported by the Big Lottery Fund, ‘Creative, Connected, Community’ is an exciting 3 year programme that will use
Creative Placemaking to deliver a lasting, transformational, community-led change for Wester Hailes.

Pivotal to the success of this approach is an innovative new Creative Placemaking role. The postholder will work with
local residents in the different neighbourhoods of Wester Hailes to develop and deliver a programme of regular
creative activities, one-off events, and participatory public art installations that respond to local assets and
aspirations.

This is a 36 month project which started in September 2017. The post holder will be taking over from someone who has
been in post since the start of the project. Handover time with the current post holder will be built into the
induction for the new post holder.
